X356 Mr Barrington May 15th 1912. FURTHER REPORT ON three sixteenth COTTON FABRIC CLUTCH. With reference to my report re above I have made further tests with the above which has run on the dynamometer quite satisfactorily, and have so far found it to work quite as well as the 1/4" material. A clutch was shown to the T.C. so as to bring to their notice the fraying as per our previous report and as suggested by them I am re-fixing this clutch to see if any harm is caused by this fraying, and am also fixing another clutch with the edges shelaced to see if this cures trouble.
